Gianna Nannini borns by one of the richest and middle-class families of Siena, was not known as a singer, though he became famous first in Germany, then in Italy.
This song titled "America", has been the very first famous song by Gianna Nannini.
Published in the album California in 1979, he managed to make it famous.
A very successful album, the songs and the music were written by the same Nannini, an album that could be called 'rock', and they did Gianna a 'rock star', although in reality only a few songs at the beginning career Gianna Nannini sang rock.
It must be said, however, that when she was abroad, in Germany, Gianna was also very unconventional, as you can see from this video.

I'll search, I've always told myself I will search
you will find, they've always told me you will find
for today i'll stay with myself, i'm enough and nobody sees me
and so i caress my loneliness
and every one has his body to which knows what to ask ask ask ask

let's make me dream, she bites her mouth and feels like America
let's make me fly, he reach out his hand and touches America
let's make love stronger and stronger and I am America

you will search, they've always told me you will search
and I will find, now that i'm caressing you I will find
but how much fantasy it's needed to feels like two
when every one has always been in his loneliness
and gives his body but doesn't know what to ask ask ask ask

let's make me fly, she has her hands on the hips like she's America
let's make me dream he goes down and up and he feels like America
let's make love she thinks to another and invents America
let's make love stronger and stronger and I am America
